Hello!
I am currently in AX 2012 R2 trying to figure out how to account for the error quantities that are entered in during the production process. I have come across the following:
Production control > Setup > Production control parameters > Standard update > Scrap Method and Scrap Account
The two choices are Allocation and Srap Account. These are used when production is Ended.
Currently, I have been able to see the allocation method work, however, when I change the scrap method to the Scrap account and assign a ledger account to post to, I am not seeing any difference. When I post an error quantity, I am just seeing the production substitution variance account being hit instead of the cost of the error quantity going to the scrap account assigned in the parameters.
I have verified on the End job class form the scrap method is labeled as scrap account with the ledger account, and I have also verified that the account for substitution variance and the scrap account are not pointed to the same ledger account.
Can anyone help with this issue? I would rather be able to use the scrap account method based on its description, but I cannot figure it out. Please let me know if you need further clarification or details.
Thank you!!!
Mike
